That's no small point.

Gortat played a terrific game. Porter in the fourth was outstanding.

If the bigs can keep this up Washington is going to give Atlanta a good challenge

Gortat, that was like the quietest, dominating performance I've ever seen.

24/13, didn't even break a sweat.

We played relatively like **** that whole game and still won. That and the fact that it's 3-0 has gotta be the final backbreaker for the Raps

Oh, and I love Paul Pierce

Lol. Thank you guys for continuing to win. Not because I care who wins, because I honestly dont. But after each loss you lay on Toronto their board is pure gold and full of comedic and entertainment.

Then he ordered PPV while he was lying down on their good couch, with their dog liking Pierce more than the Raps.

Then he left with their money, their jewelry, and their hearts.

Pierce>>>>>Toronto



One man greater then the whole country of Canada! Paul "The Truth" Pierce :bowdown:

Toronto did play outstanding defense. They were on Beal like glue the whole game. They limited John's drives and rebounded much better. They didn't lay down and I doubt they will on Sunday. They just seem to go as Lowry goes and he's obviously not 100%.

But the difference in this series is Randy going to small ball and using PP at the 4.

Marcin Gortat also had 5 assists and 4 blocks.

Gooden over Humphries and Seraphin has been very good, too.

KS was a DNP-CD.

Well, Seraphin didn't get a minute, so credit to Randy for finally seeing how much he hurts this team.

KS didn't get a minute because Gortat wasn't in early foul trouble. Simple as that.

Agreed with Marcin and Porter, but I thought Gooden hurt us a bit defensively. Still his 3's were huge. Porter was everywhere defensively though. Almost Kawhi-lite. The Wall-Beal-Otto-Pierce-Gortat lineup is a winner.

Congratulations! I put money on Toronto this game (good odds I thought...) and I'm not even mad :lol:. It was great watching Pierce own Toronto's soul yet again.

The Truth! I do feel this series is a perfect storm for the Wizards. Wittman, who I always considered a bad coach, is putting out lineups that work offensively and spank the Raptors at their own game. The talent was always there. The traditional starting unit with Nene always had problems against Toronto even tonight. Add in OP coming into his own as a two way SF/small ball stretch 4 and the future could be bright for the Wiz afterall. Glad the sweep is happening, as a Raptor fan I truly felt this team should have been blown up but hey Toronto always has to do things the hard way. Good game and good series guys.

For a guy who is 33 and has been around the block. Gooden doesn't have a lot of poise. That baseball pass to Beal or Wall (I forget which) that was picked off was inexcusable. He hustles his ass off and fans love him for that. Then he'll block a shot he's not expected to. But that's probably because he's making up for a mistake he made on defense. I'd still rather go with Hump but I get Gooden offers energy and more spacing.
